Pet care experience

We love our furry guests

Our family loves dogs. I can take care of dogs that are up to 25 lbs. We like giving lots of love and attention to our furry guests and enjoy playing in the backyard with them. Our 7 year old dog Chess is the sweetest host and has the best time when we have doggie friends over to play with and run around. I work from home so I’m always there to give them attention and lots of belly scratches. In the afternoons your dog will experience a full house with three older children who love to play and cuddle with our furry friends. Being a dog “mommy” myself I understand how important it is to make sure our puppies are well taken care off while we are out of town. Not only taking care of their basic needs, but making sure they get extra love while their humans are away. I like documenting your doggie stay with pictures and videos, and send them to you every day. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry baby soon!

Bertha and her family took great care of Charlie while we were away. He has to take daily medications which they were comfortable with giving to him.

this was my very first time leaving my baby with some one other than my mom. and we were traveling to cancun so i was super nervous and i know my baby was also . Bertha and her family were absolutely AMAZING with her . I got several updates and pictures every day . Stormi was so spoiled and loved on , i wasn’t sure if she was going to want to come home when we got back 😂. I will most definitely be using berth again in the near future and i highly recommend bertha

Safety, trust & environment

I work from home so I have the flexibility to pay extra attention to our doggie guests. Our backyard is fenced. We never open the front door to avoid the dogs to accidentally getting out. To get in out out of the house we go thought laundry room, close the door, then open the door that goes to the garage. We take care of one dog at a time (or 2 from the same family). I always separate the dogs during feeding time.

Pets

A typical day

We love to play catch in the backyard. I let them nap on my lap or next to me while I am working. We take walks either early morning or at sunset.

I like to know if they are anxious or scared of anything, such as storms. I always ask where they sleep. We don’t allow dogs in our bed. However, If the doggie is used to sleeping on the owner’s bed, I usually sleep on the couch so they don’t feel lonely. I also like to know how many times a day they are fed and if they need any medication (including vitamins/probiotics)
